    Vegan Bananas Foster Granola

    May 25, 2022 by Lauren Hartmann 2 Comments

    *This post may contain affiliate links in the recipe card*

    Bananas Foster is one of my favorite desserts! The bruleed banana, the nuts, the ice cream, the rum, the hot and cold. It rocks my world. I was thinking about making a super easy granola for you guys and it hit me. Vegan Bananas Foster granola! Add all the flavors to a simple breakfast or snack granola. And honestly, this may be my favorite granola of all time. Pecan butter, pecans, rum extract, banana chips, cinnamon. It is incredible!

    What Do You Need For This Granola:

    • Pecan Butter: You can also use cashew or almond butter if you can’t find pecan butter, but I highly recommend pecan butter!
    • Maple Syrup: Agave works too.
    • Vanilla and Rum Extracts: To give it a really great bananas foster flavor.
    • Salt and Cinnamon: To season it perfectly.
    • Oats, Pecans and Banana Chips: These make up the granola mix.
    • Brown Sugar or Coconut Sugar: This is added at the end to coat and caramelize. I prefer brown sugar, but if you are trying to keep it refined sugar-free coconut sugar works.

    Normally, crunchy granola is made with egg whites to give it that nice crunch once it is baked. However, this vegan granola is super crunchy just from being mixed with the pecan butter and maple syrup! Once it is baked it has the perfect crunch and can be stored in an airtight container for about a week or so. I love to eat this vegan bananas foster granola with non-dairy milk and fresh banana on top. If you want to be real fancy, you can even caramelize your banana! I promise, once you taste this granola, you’ll probably have it in your pantry all the time!

    Why Should You Make This Classic Dessert Inspired Granola?

    1. It is super simple and fast to make.
    2. The perfect make ahead breakfast that should fee you all week!
    3. It is hands down one of the most delicious granolas on the planet.
    4. Kid-approved, my daughter loves it and will join me for breakfast.
    5. Only 10 ingredients, many of which you may already have in your pantry!

      Yum! I’ve been looking forward to making this, and glad I did! I didn’t pre-roast the pecans, since they were going in the oven anyway and I didn’t want them to get too crispy. I also saved the banana chips and mixed them in once the granola was done baking. Other than that, I followed the recipe exactly, using almond butter.

      I’ve been making this on repeat this summer. I’ve also substituted tahini for the pecan butter with good results.
